So far for me, the only one is the gas tank. When the original leaked, I should have made one just like it and retained the original position. I plan to do that after 7/7/7.

Oddly enough Mazda, the only mod I have any second thoughts about is my gas tank too.

Because I take my kids in the car on the road, a few people suggested switching to a bag tank/fuel cell for safety's sake.

And I know it was the right thing to do for safety's sake...a mod that I won't regret should it ever come into play. But it was pretty darn expensive (I choose to "do it right" and run a new A/N fuel line too...not the easiest solution) and the 55 liter ATL tank eats up nearly half of little boot space I had.

My second thoughts are mostly...hmm, I could have bought a trailer for the cost of that tank.

my tank mistake was only a $250 mistake, so it's not too bad.

In the interest of maintaining a happy marriage, I will not disclose exactly how much the ATL cost when all was said and done.

Let's just say adding a zero to your figure wouldn't be enough to cover the tank alone, not even including the install cost. :cry:

On the subject of happy marriages, the once optional 'bigger cans' are best avoided.
